x2000, Thank you for making some suggestions for guidelines. I think we do need to regulate ourselves so as not to be censored by the Government (initially in the US, but it may well spread!). I made such a suggestion earlier in a thread (Number 79) called "Instead or fighting amongst ourselves.." I take on board the critisism that such threads belong in Complaints and Debates Forums, but agree with you that most people don't go there and this is an issue which could affect us all ... imagine what happens if Curious Labs or DAZ3d close due to having to fight expensive court cases with the Government. These issues need airing and they need to be discussed. For example: Your intention is presumably to help prevent Renderosity being used as a base for Child Pornography. Good, very laudable. However, your wording is far too vauge and general, for example, you suggest; "And any kind of breast morph or such specifically for the girls should be banned utterly." The Mil Girls both have breasts (they're part of mammalian physiology), I am making morphs to REDUCE the size of their breasts, to make the girls look thinner. Would you ban that too? Real girls may start "breast development" from as early as 8 or 9 years old or as late as their mid teens. The Mil girls have an ethnic body shape which is very typically American. No I'm not shouting "racism", I'm saying that size and shape of body have nothing whatsoever to do with whether a picture is pornographic or not. OK, so my point is we do need people to make suggestions for guidelines and they need to be discussed. Have a look at my suggestions (Thread 79, Post 10). Perhaps you feel I'm being too lenient, please say where you think the statements can be improved. IsaacNewton
